You must taste it to get the full effect.


Vcolor thinner is medium-bodied, moderately dry with hints of fruit. Acetone has a rich smoky flavour, with a little more "bite," yet not overpowering...

Regarding thinner....has anybody used acetone as thinner with any success?


Okay... Acetone, sort of works... but if your using dropper bottles, it will eat away at the cap, and rubber dropper...

In a pinch I substituted V-Color thinner for regular Lacquer thinner... It seemed to work just fine, but I did get alot of webbing if it wasn't thinned perfectly...

I jut spoke with KT... They are waiting for their shipment to come in from V-Color as well, but they said it should be in very shortly... Keep your eyes peeled cuz I think EVERYONE needs some and it's gonna go fast again... Hopefully everyone sent them alot of emails, so they reordered more...

Low on black and thinner too. Ordered a couple of 200 cc cans from KT but it's starting to bother me how it's taking a bit of time with EMS shipping.

I know of an alternative paint. It almost has the same properties as V-color and would dare say it's the next closest thing. I've done some early tests on vinyl but I don't want to recommend it until I've painted a few more customs.

I will tell you that its readily available here in the US and the color range is bigger than V-color. We're talking pearls, metallics, candies,etc.

Just an FYI: I'm heading out to the Irisawa warehouse on Friday to pick up V Color. I just called, and right now they have all colors in stock. If you need something, let me know today or tomorrow at unicorn.kikanjyu@gmail.com.

Word!
